Why we chose Dubai – Tuface Idibia

All over the cyber space, the question has been rife as to why hip hop artiste, Tuface Idibia chose to seal his love with long time sweetheart, Annie Macaulay in faraway Dubai in the United Arab Emirates as against Nigeria where the bulk of his fans are and where he makes more sales. Well, Mr. idibia has explained the reason

why they chose UAE in a recent interview.

“I think there is this spiritual connection. We thought of a perfect place for the white wedding and the idea of Dubai came up. I don’t know about crowd control. We

just want to have the best of the moment and make sure things go rightly. There is nothing more to it. It does not have to do with controlling the people or anything.

The fact is that you can’t run away from the people. Anywhere you go, you will meet people and these people have come to celebrate with us… Let’s just say that we love

Dubai and we also discovered that it was a perfect venue for us,” he stated.

u have miss d point,ur fans wanted to b around u,y didnt u chose a descent place in naija like obudu cattle ranch or tinapa closer ur state and ur wife state

Your reason is simply idiotic. Why will black man not be able to reason properly like human beings for once?
Our politicians steal our money and run away with it to Dubai and now our musician collect our money and run to Dubai to do wedding. Is our country cursed that we will never do well with our own money and our own thing in our own country?
See, the bible and the Koran have taken over our believes to the extent that we will never believe anything can be done without prayers. So so sad is our story.

Its Strange that people comment on someones private life, and you point at 2face and u see the other 4 fingers pointing at you. How many of you chose to marry because of the location of your work or office? The Office should decide where you should have your wedding right? Because they are the source of your income. Lets not get it twisted guys, everybody dreams of a fantasy wedding and if I give many of you a blank cheque you will want to get married in Paris. Lets not be hypocrites and let the young couple be. Honestly among those of you commenting how may have actually bought an Original 2Face CD (Not Pirated).

Don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house.

am out Peace.

You are way off-point Mr.

My brother you are so correct. If Tu face decided to get married in Enugu, how many fans would leave Abuja, Lagos etc to attend. A wedding is a private matter. If he decided to get married in his village with just both families in attendance, Nigerians would talk. Nigeria, we have more serious issues. Face them!

Tommyakins

Your reasons is as stupid as u are. I am not moved irrespective of where u do your wedding, non of the oyinbo stars would ever think of having his wedding in Nigeria. But mind u, u should be able to encourage ur Dubai fans to patronise ur CDs. Stupid of u.

olajide

@Dman u are as foolish as tuface, so the so called dubia make tuface right? U give back to people what they gave u, am his fans and we all have the right to challenge him bcos he’s a star, without us buying his cds he may be struggling…. Instead of him to appologised he kept saying dubai is d best, food no dey our govt steal our money away, nw our so called artist tak our money away toooooo….. Shame shame shame on dis nation, only fervent prayers and non stp fasting would help us….. A very rich poor nation… And as for u Dman go do ur wedding for dubai whether ur mama and papa go fit follow u .. FOOLISH!

Dman

@Olajide am not into name calling but be sincere the guy had a traditional marriage in Nigeria, Did you attend, would you have attended his wedding even if it was in Lagos. We you pay for crowd control. Guys be honest. many people dream of more exotic weddings. and Many foreign stars marry outside their own country they seem famous. eg Tom cruise. What will Tuface getting married in Nigeria do for you or anybody?

jbg

Go and sit down my friend. Like someone pointed out – you probably have never bought an original Tu face CD. Dont buy; dont attend his concerts. You will not be missed. Rubbish!

Folks, the only way we can express our disappointment with 2 face is to dump him and his music. How on earth can a local musician whose well being depend on the goodwill of our patronage carry our money to Dubai, creating jobs for people that do not even appreciate him and his useless music, while our talented young men are idle. How many times have citizens of Dubai invited 2 face for shows in Dubai? How long can we continue to subjugate ourselves to foreign countries to the detriment of our country? What kind of inferiority complex is this? Those we have given our all; in politics, public service and now musicians, collect our money and carry it abroad. Let us not wait for spirits to wash this shame of 2 face from our land, let us dump him and his music. Period.

The deed as been done,leave dis man alone ,its not bad if we allow for a sentimental weakness for this guy .na tubaba nau leave am o.if I had my way I’ll send him to space or moon for d wedding ceremony

michael alade

typical nigerian, money miss road.

Oluski

To mr TU BABA! Your reason is not ok at all, why cnt u jst think over ur statement urself. How many dubai artist u hv see cming to nija and hv their wedding here? Wel i dnt buy ur cd before and with dis i can not even be motivated to buy or appreciate whtever thing that come frm u.

Alarwie64

This is a disturbing development in our country; never proud of our heritage. We seem to regret being born black, and inferior to the white skin. If we fail to promote our heritage, who will. As for 2face,he is a big let-down.

Ibrahim

Money miss road indeed, if u observed there was no single white person at the wedding venue, it was a case of Nigerians at Dubai. He want 2 tell pple dat my weding tuk place in far away Dubai daz all. Our so called celebrities are full of complex. The other day it was Omotola celebrating birthday in America.

Oscar

One can understand the anger of Nigerian fans on this. But the 2face we know has always been a shy and timid person, irrespective of his being a music super star. He couldnt have probably held his wedding in Nigeria where the media will likely engage him in a chat and all that. That is why he chose Dubai mosque to wed, because am told that there is no visible church in UAE. 2Baba carry go nothin do uuuuuuuuu!

OJ The OBSERVER

Ocsarrrrrrrr!!! You oscarize me with your comment no bi small… LOL. Why not say the truth so that he can make corrections. But wait oo. Do you think that is his subtle way of protesting the general condition of the country?

Which ever way it is, his fans feel terribly betrayed about it. Again, I heard another angle to it, (but please don’t tell anybody about this one please, just keep it top secret) someone said the real reason is that with many bro**en hea*ts and plenty small small pic*kins from various sources, already on ground, nobody can predict the kin drama wey go show face by way of protest and revenge mission if that kind event take place for nija. Oscar do you see any sense in that? Oscar! Oscar!! answer me now!
Oscar you noserious oo which kin music you dey sing so?……..You…are…my….DuBaii…Queeeen…the…
Oscar I fear you oooo. Abeg mek I go shark one green bottle…LOL.

Nig man.

Big disappointment, from 2face reasons to hold his wedding in dubai is not corgent enpugh. One he said he just love Dubai….. which mean he dont love nigeria as much . He also said the fact is that he can’t run frm the people …. so actually he was running away frm the people , frm Nigerians at home his fans. He said he discoverd Dubai was a perfect venue for them, an Arab muslim country… while neither of them are muslims . which means his wedding cake might be made overthere in dubai instead to patronise one of your fans who might benefit from you as well cos they say if these hand wash the other hand both will become clean. Many questios have been ask how many arabs do patrinise his musics or his songs? How many arabs are his fans … but i think marriage can be done here in Nigeria and honey moon in dubai . But he doesnt care about his fans not just about all nigeria but about his fan in Nigeria. Nigeria mentality evertime we complain things are not working.. what a pity.

D deed had been done but really he has disapointed his fans vomitting jagons.

Frank Enemchukwu

That’s the Nigerian mentality A pig has its own nature, no one can take that away from him, it can’t be changed,

Arue uromu

Come to think of it folks, a man that has 2 face connot be trusted. His name defines his character. The man is a hoax. He is a bad omen to the younger generation. Nigeria youths hereby demand that Governor Akpabio withdraw his two jeeps from 2 face without fail And donate them to the nearest ophanage home. Otherwise both of them now smelling of corruption and con terminated with low mentality and hatred for Nigeria as exhibited by 2 face, should wait for youth actions. But 2 face, don’t you realize by denying honest and hard working Nigerians the jobs associated with your wedding and exporting it to Dubai, you are indirectly fueling the hunger and hopelessness now pervading our land? Can’t you see why our young men are now indulging in despirate ventures such as kidnapping? What a man sows is what he reaps. It’s a natural law.

TU FACE PLEASE STOP TALKING RUBBISH,IT IS ONLY NIGERIANS THAT WONDER ALL OVER THE PLACE IN SEARCH OF PERFECTION FOR IMPERFECT MARRIAGE.YOU HAVE NO OTHER REASON THAT TO SHOW THAT WE ARE ALL STUPID BY PATRONISING YOUR MUSIC AND YOU’VE ARRIVED.
THE MONEY YOU SPENT IN DUBAI CAN DO SOMENTHING IN YOUR STATE BENUE STATE IF YOU HAD CHOSEN TO BE MODEST.YOU CAN SAY IT IS YOUR PERSONAL MONEY BUT REMEMBER THE MONIES WE USED IN BUYING YOUR ALBUMS WERE OUR PERSONAL MONIES TOO BUT WE CHOSE TO SPEND THEM ON YOU ON GROUNDS OF PATRIOTISM,WHICH YOU DIDN’T EXHIBIT BY SPENDING ALL THOSE MONIES IN DUBAI ECONOMY.TOO BAD BUT YOU WILL SEE THE REACTION OF SOME SANE NIGERIANS FROM NOW ON,YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE THE ONLY NIGERIAN MUSIC STAR.

OJ The OBSERVER

My friend please take it easy with Tuface. I know how you feel. You see, initially I wanted to keep quiet and see how it all unfolds, but I was forced to react when he gave his/their reasons. It would have been better if he didn’t give any reasons at all. My summary about it all is this: His managers and counselors are not alive to their responsibilities else, they would advised him better.

Nwaolisah, esq.

I don’t know why peeps are so selfish, what is your concern if he does his wedding in Dubai. That is what he has for himself and it has been done, so you peeps should stop dragging yourselves into bush like this. For those of you that are angry, not patronizing his cds will not stop him from moving forward. So, you guys are just jealous of the big show. To tubaba, l wish you a joyful wedded life and a merry easter in advance. Enjoy!!!!!

Tubaba thank God for giving you the wisdom to do your wedding outside 9ja because people that were planning to put confussion in your wedding were lost in the ocean of disappointment.papa God like u oo….
